BUSY LIFE BEHIND THE SCENES

time for preparation. I would choose
! some theatrical manager tor uenerai
, take the actors for noncommissioned
- officers and the working staff for my
; fighting men. Victory would surely
' perch on our banner.
"Seriously, we hear a great deal said
about the hard, life of the soldier and
the sailor. They're fine men, but they
aren't In it with the men of whom
speak, for they enjoy their sleep and
' their pleasure in a way that the mil
lionaire does not know and could not

soldiers under Washington.
"Many a time I've eeen one of these
. chaps fall right down, too tired to hold
, himself .erect. Often they will prop
' themselves sgalnst a piece of scenery
t and take the nap that exhausted na
ture demands. In dark crannies and
nooks behind the scenes are often the
only resting places they know for days
at a time.
"A working-staff, as the carpenters,
property-men and electricians are
railed, travel with every company, and
when the actors get through and go
to their hotel to get their rest before
carting out again. It takes a pretty
indifferent or pretty calloused Indi
vidual not to have before him con
stantly a comparison of his lot with
that of the men on whose fidelity so
much of his success depends.
"In one night stands, when the cur
tain rings down at 11 o'clock their
trouble begins. All the scenery, bit
by bit. has to be taken down, and every
piece of 'property has to be covered
in wadding and excelsior, if It Is break
able. Sometimes there will be hun
dreds of dollars wor'.h of china, glass
snd bric-a-brac to be moved. After this
Is done. It Is placed on the truck and
taken to the station, which may be
across town. There Is no time to loi
ter; agility -and carefulness are requi
site qualities. The scenery may be on
board cars by almost superhuman ef
fort by 4:30 or 5 o'clock, and the proba
bility is that the train starts at 6. There
is an hour or so in which they may get
a cup of coffee and a snatch of sleep.
takn wherever they can find a place.
"The car that leaves the station at
o'clock mny be due at the next stopping
place at 12. the tired men having ridden
in passenger cars. AU very well, if it
were for one Journey, but when you think
they take that kind of trip without having
had sufficient sleep all through the rush
and roar of the season on the road, you
appreciate the lack of complaint Just as
soon- as the train gets In, the cars with
the scenery are shunted to the sidetrack
and the unpacking, loading the trucks,
and the subsequent - unpacking at the
theater and putting into place follow..
"Usually we get to a place with Just
time enough to get things ready for a
matinee performance. Betwen that and
tlie evening performance there are a
thousand things to do. and after that Is
over begins the weary round again.

masters of emergencies, and said that

mous productions he depended on their
skill and experience to a great extent to
supplement his own staff. He never took
them for -granted, as so many actors do.
as If they were furniture or a part of the
properties. but. realized to the full that
they represented a . laree class of fine
men. They have a double staff to do the
same work In England.
The relation between an actor and his
working staff is a close one. One cannot
travel thirty-odd weeks with a lot of men
without getting to know them well. If
you have any Interest outside a limited
SDhere. In a sense, the leading man Is
the father of his whole company, and
hould feel a paternal Interest in the
humblest one. If he does not. If- he is
captious, disagreeable and grumpy, the
probabilities are that when he starts out
next year he will find himself with an en
tirely new outfit of workers to break in.
I know of no greater satisfaction than to
find, when you start out on your season's
tour, the same working staff that you
have traveled with for years.
I like the boyish way they enjoy little
things, the zest that no hard knocks
seems able to destroy toward primitive
pleasures. They don't get dissipated and
their lives away from their -homes don't
make them forgetful.
Last Christmas I was playing In Phila
delphia, and was homesick and unhappy.
My brothers, William and Marshall, to
gether with my father, were In "New
York, euid I wanted to get home with
them, and the fact that the house was
sold out for the day and the night did
not seem to affect me with any special
Joy. It seemed to me that every human
being ought to have a Christmas day. I
walked toward my dressing-room in that
state of mind, and when I opened the
door T found a big placard reading 'For
Mr. Farnum. from the orking Staff,'
and .that explained the bower of green.
dotted here and there with holly and
mistletoe, really an artistic decoration
Into which the room had been turned.

as I am from mine could tninK ot ine

not to go around with a forlorn face."

circuit are the two Pucks. -They are
brother and sister, and have been on the
s:age since they were 3 years old. These
little Juvenile artists introduce a series
of character songs, with an appropriate
change of costume.
Welch, Mealy and Montrose pre.xent a
comedy act called "Play Ball." which is
full of fun and a big scream. It illus
trates the humorous side of the strife be
tween the New York Giants and the Chi
cago Cubs.
Two funny German comedy stars. Ray
mond and Caverly. are presenting their
original latest laughing skit. "A Booming
Town." In which they Introduce bits -of
their former successes. "Swivel Service"
and "Talk of Society." which made such
signal hits throughout the East. Their
appearance on any bill Is a guarantee of
good, fast comedy and & laugh a second.
ARTISTIC DANCER HEADS BILIi
Sensational Knife Act Another At'
traction Coming to Grand.
Following up the strong vaudeville
programme which has held sway at the
Orand for the past week and which
closes tonight. Sullivan & Considine send
another big bill for this week, starting
tomorrow afternoon. On this new bill
the feature will be Llnd. the artlstlo
dancer, who appeared so successfully at
the Folles Berger. Paris. An act which
can play this famous vaudeville house of
Paris can make good anywhere. One
of the striking features of Und s spe
cialty will be the costumes. These are
the most beautiful and gorgeous ever
worn by an artistic dancer in vaudeville.
There is not a woman in Portland who
will not appreciate these creations of the
Parisian dressmakers. The dancing Is
the acme of grace and art.
"Billy's Girl" An a playlet In which
Alice Mortlock and company will appear.
The plot revolves around the mistaken
Identity of a country girl and a well
known actress. The reports received
on this playlet say that It Is original and
good.
A monologist who uses new material Is
always appreciated in Portland. Tom
D-empsey, the musical comedy comedian,
will make a bid for popularity In his as
sortment of stories, recitations, songs
and parodies. There Is not an old story
In his collection and If you can't laugh
at Tom Dempsey then It is time to con
sult a r-hysli-ian and see what Is the
matter with your funny bone.
The great Romanoffs are sensational
krife-throwers and give an exhibition of
human Intrepidity. There is knife and
battieax throwing and a disrobing act
Is made by the keen blades cutting one
costume oft after another. It would be
difficult to conjure a more exciting and
thrilling feature than this.
"The Liixy Athlete" Is a comedy acro
batic turn by Paster and Merle, who
have a reputation as gymnasts In eccen
tric, feats. "Just Married a Week"
sounds Interesting and will be played
by Howley and Olcott. It is a comedy
ketch. Miss McKinley, the prima donna
soprano, will be heard and there will be
an Illustrated song by Fred Bauer and
Imported motien pictures.
Today will be the last of the present
bill, with d'Amon. the mind reader,
answering all questions.
CIRCVS OS PAXTAGES' STAGE
I tog and Pony Show Is Feature This
Week.
Tes tt Is true, there will be a one
ring circus at the Pantagra Theater, com
awnctng with Monday's matinee. 6hepps'
3og. pony and monkey-circus, one of the
largest and best animal ebowi ever pre
sented on a vaudeville stage, performing
unheard-of feats and displaying almost
human intelligence; a show that will
please the young and the old! Including
high school Shetland ponies; dogs that
do everything but talk and comical
monkey clowns that keep the audience
convulsed with laughter. And on next
Saturday afternoon there will be a spe
cial matinee for the little ones. After
the ' performance is over, the dogs,
monkeys and ponies will hold a re
ception on the stage and each child will
be treated to a ride on the tiny Shetland
ponies. " The entire performance is said
to be out of the ordinary and strong
enough to make a good vaudeville enter
tainment without the big list of other
star attractions on the bill.
As a special added attraction, the man
agement takes much pleasure In announc
ing, Klein, Ott Brothers and Nicholson
who are well known throughout the Unit
ed States and Europe as America's great
est musical act. This act has been
featured as a headline attraction in all
the big Eastern cities.
Lester & Miller present a comedy play
let entitled "The Little Emigrant." which
is recommended as a positive cure for the
blues.
La Toy Bros., sensational, funny, dif
ferent, comedy acrobats, have an act
full of surprising acrobatic revolutions.
introducing ground tumbling no other
artist can Imitate, interspersed with orig
inal acrobatic comedy, and a hit In every
house they ever worked.
Mr. and Mrs. Buckley, assisted by
Frank Martin, present a one-act farce
comedy entitled "A Busy Manager."
Harry Leahy, the new baritone singer,
will sing a new Illustrated song, and the
blograph will present the very latest In
motion photography, which comes direct
from the factory to the Pantages Thea
ter.
Today will be your last chance to see
Mrs. Eva Fay who Is supported by a all
star aggregation of vaudeville artists.
Notes of the Portland
High School
W
West Side.
KEN his mates sent Grlnnell over
Wednesday, In the game with the East
Side High School, cardinal stock went
soaring. From the present outlook the
West High bids fair to maintain Its po
sition, as champion in the Interscholastlo
League. Captain Smith and Coach Jor
dan have hammered their lines Into a
stone wall that will be hard to pierce.
The result. 6-0 In Its favor, was not
unlocked for by the supporters of the
Cardinal, ' ihe slight sdvantages shown
by the opponents of West High In the
games with Lincoln Hign, oi Seattle,
and the Oregon Freshmen led to the be
lief that the line would not be crossed
by the East Eiders.
The game was an event In Interschol
astic athletes. Old-stagers say they
have never seen secondary schools put
up a better game on a rortiand held.
They are already having visions of the
time when the new high school on the
Peninsula shall be a fact. Then the three
high schools will furnish sport hardly In
ferior in interest to the Multnomah-Ore
gon game.
The spirit manifest in the v ednesday
game was one of the features of the oc
casion. Everybody was in good spirits,
as it was anybody's game almost to the
close. The rooting excelled anything before
displayed In the Interscholastlc games.
Kenneth McAlpln. yell-leader for the
West 8lde. had his rooters well marshaled
and used them to good effect. He also
succeeded In eliminating the tin horn
nuisance. It was noticed that the usual
stamping on the grandstand was con
spicuous by its absence. The only thing
that marred the occasion was Ross' re
tirement from the- field on a technical
ruling. The East Side backs failed to
stop him and he accidentally fouled the
kicker.
The next game In the series Is with
Hill Military Academy, next Wednes
day afternoon. This will probably de
cide the championship, as H. M. A. has
taken Columbia's scalp. There will be
something of the Internecine In the con
test, as a number of the H. M. A- play
ers are old West Side men.
Latouretta and McKinley, stars on the
West Side championship team of last
season, visited the boys Thursday at
their afternoon practice. They were
passing through the city on their way to
Moscow, Idaho, to take part in the Idaho
Oregon match. Latouretta plays his old
position of quarter; McKinley, half.
The success of the first team of the
West High is due In a great measure to
the second team. The scrubs are faith
ful In responding to a call that has much
grief and little glory. They have or
ganized, however, and expect to take
some trips on their own account. Everett
Peterson Is manager; Sam Arnold, cap
tain. The line-up is as follows:
Holden. quarterback; Ashby, fullback:
Trine, right half; Smith and Stlrebig, left
half: Morsan. rlKht end: Stoehr. left end;
Tyson, right half: Brooks, extra left
tackle; McCorkle, right guard; O'NeU
and Carson, left guards; Vail, center.
The Bible Club met Tuesday afternoon
as usual. The ofilcers are: President,
Walker Peddlcord; vice-president, Oscar
Hansen; secretary and treasurer, Harold
Wahlberg: sergeant-at-arms, Cecil
Spicer. This Winter the Club has on
dertaken the study of the rise of the
Apostolic Church. They use as a text
book Bosworth and Barton's "Studies in
the Acts and Epistles." In this way the
young men -are trying to correct the Ig
norance of the Bible lamented on by Pro
fessor Gardiner, of Harvard, and Pro
fessor Phelps, of Tale, In applicants for
admission to college." The high scnoois
of Spokane and Salt Lake offer regular
elective courses In Bible study.
The February, '09, class met Thursday
afternoon. The class officers are: Harold
Wahlberg. president; Nellie Hemmenway,
vice-president; Abramine Thatcher, sec
retary; Mildred Vail, treasurer; Newton
Smith, sergeant-at-arms. The meeting
was called to discuss whether the class
should attempt to issue a number of the
Cardinal. The class Is unusually small,
having only 34 members. This class
marks a transition stage between the old
three-year course and the new four-
year course for all subjects, consequent
ly, there are only a few English and
German numbers. Notwithstanding this
handicap In numbers, the class decided
to follow Its precedent and take charge
of the February Cardinal. Lucile Davis
was elected editor; Cecil Miller, assistant
editor: Cecil Altman, business manager:
Will Ross, assistant manager; Nellie
Hemmenway, class poet.
Wednesday afternoon was held the first
assembly of the year. It was managed
entirely by the students, with the idea
of stirring up interest in the approach
ing game. Yell-leader McAlpln addressed
the students and - then led off in a few
rousing yells, after which the crowd ad
journed to the football field.
The societies met as usual Friday aft
ernoon. The Tologelons argued -tne
question of a larger navy for the United
States, Wahlberg and Martzloff support
ing the affirmative, Stott and Peddlcord.
the negative. The affirmative won. The
Impromptu was: "Resolved. That AU
Countries Should Adopt the Same Mone
tary System." Affirmative, Shaefer and
Pearcy: negative, Apple and Anderson,
the latter won. The following new mem
bers have been admitted: Apple, Jeffrey,
Gentner, Pearcy, Howes, Attlx and
Young. A committee was appointed to
arrange for a "stag" In the near future.
The Adelphlans had another of their
"character" programmes. This week they
took up the "Slums of New York." Miss
Zackner appeared first with a paper on
"The Tenements of New York"; Eliza
beth Bush followed with "Types of the
Unemployed"; Gertrude Osh described the
life of the working girl In New York.
The programme closed with, a debate:
"Resolved. That the Municipalities
Should Undertake the Housing of the
Poor." Jessie Young and ' Emma Meek
maintained the affirmative; John Bankus
and Ruth Pawley the negative. The af
firmative was awarded the decision.
The Phllolexlans gave their second
programme on current politics as fol
lows: Debate: "Resolved, That United
States Senators Should Be Elected by
Direct Vote of the People.',' Affirmative,
Misses Donnell and Law; negatives,
Robertson and Powell. The affirmative
won. Ruth Young followed with a talk
on railroad rate legislation. Elizabeth
Whlttlesay olosed the programme with a
discussion of a greater navy. A. P. M.
East' Side.
The officers of the new literary so
ciety have been elected as follows: Pres
ident, W. Homer Maris; vice-president.
Mary Davles; secretary and treasurer,
Edward Garcia. The work of this society
will be for the development of the lite
rary talent of its members. A secondary
aim will be to provide material for "The
Lens." The constitution has been die
cussed and will soon be in Its finished
form. - The only thing lacking Is a name.
A good programme was given Friday
by the Eukrineon Society. Hatfield gave
a monologue and was followed by Garcia,
who read his literary report. Garcla's
subject was aeronautics, and he made
it verv Interesting. In his reading he In
cluded a Joke which the audience took
In awed silence. Then he wrote his Joke
on the blackboard, drew a diagram and I
informed his follow Eukrlneons Vhat It
was a Joke, whereupon came the laugh
ter, to the satisfaction of the manufac
turer of the Joke. Next was a violin
solo by Cook, which called for an encore.
Miss Armitage spoke of the Democratic
National Convention, which she attend
ed last Summer. The debate was, "Re
solved.' That the people of the United
States should sanction tne scneme or
railroad regulation as set forth In the
Democratic platform." This was won toy
Martin and Summers, who spoke In the
negative. Johnson and Singletary were
on the affirmative.
The Phrenodikens gave an exception
ally good programme October 23.. Mar
garet Nekson gave an Impromptu talk.
Whv the Donkey and tne Eiiepnant Are
Appropriate Party Emblems." Goldie
Grlsson gave a reading. "A Girl's Tele
phone Conversation." Next came a de
bate: "Resolved. That Bryan Is a hand
somer man than Taft." This was illus
trated by large pictures of the rival can
didates. It waa decided that Bryan was
the handsomer man. Carin Diegermark
spoke for Bryan and Claire Oakes for
Taft. "Quips and Cranks," the, Phreno
paper, was read by May Rogers. The
meeting closed with the report of Mary
Davles, temporary critic.

has been founded by a number of
learned linguists of the Sorbonne for the
study and preservation of Trench ana
foreign dialects or patois. In the circu
lar of the new society an Interesting
scheme is set down for the study of the
different French dialects, or rather Latin
dialects, for the society means to push
its studies further than the frontier. The
countries in which Roman dialects are
spoken are to be divided up into ls ais-
trlcts: Northern France, Southern
France,- Spain and America where the
Castillan dialects are spoken, Portugal
and Portuguese countries, Canada, Bel
gium, French and Italian-speaking
Switzerland, the Emgaaine, itaiy ana m
Latin-speaking countries of Dalmatla,
Albania and Roumania. An editor will
be placed in charge of each district, with
powers to collect documents and folk
lore, and eventually the society hopes to
publish a monumental work upon the
patois of the Latln-epeainng worm.
